Under what circumstances can an amateur radio operator reprogram a land mobile transmitter on behalf of another person for use on 2 metres?
- A Only if the other person holds an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate
- B Only if an amateur radio operator with an Advanced Qualification performs the modification
- C Only if the other person holds an Advanced Qualification
- D Only if the other person holds a Basic with Honours Qualification
Correct answer: A — Only if the other person holds an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

You may reprogram a land mobile transmitter for someone else only if that person already holds an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate, because the rules require the equipment user to be a licensed operator regardless of who does the physical work.
